Slides are almost always banned on golf courses because they expose toes, lack side-to-side support, and offer insufficient stability for a proper golf swing, creating both safety hazards and poor performance outcomes. Courses also aim to protect turf, and unstable footwear can cause players to twist, scuff, or drag the ground improperly, damaging greens and tee boxes. Instead, courses expect closed-toe, supportive golf shoes like PAYNTR, which combine lightweight comfort, waterproof materials, and engineered traction to keep players balanced, compliant with dress codes, and capable of generating consistent power without slipping.
